Moroccan Vegetable and Bean Soup

You don't need a leg of lamb or pieces of chicken to pull out the flavours of Morocco in a dish. This vegan friendly soup is filled with delicious and heart-healthy chunks of veggies and beans. You can use any types you want, but my soup's stars were cauliflower and lima beans, which are full of protein, fiber and vitamins!
